“A warm palette painter, Vesna Milunović knows how to translate her perception of the world into a very personal painting language. A magician of colors that she handles like a true poet, she has been a researcher all her life who strives to awaken the perception of another world in the mirror of her painting.”

“What is outstanding is her unusually sure hand, long, broad and yet light brush strokes on the white canvas. Milunović paints with great skill, managing to preserve clarity even in the most complicated of forms. Her colours, suffused by effect of intensive hues, act like “a means of deceit”, their ostensibly cheerful glow concealing an actually gloomy and depressing content of the painting. What is impressive is the format of these compositions, not without impact on the message delivered by them.”

“Vesna Milunovic’s painting is based on the play of the appearance of reality and the reality of appearance, on the original relationship between idea and matter, idea and form. Vesna thinks of the picture first as a poet, and then – often – as a philosopher … Her “conceptualism” is part of the effort of creative consciousness to establish such a relationship between the nature of art and the nature of the material world that will give the image both formal and semantic autonomy, along with a certain perceptual connection with the forms of material reality.”

“The drawings of the painter Vesna Milunovic are not templates for her paintings. Genre-wise, they belong to a complex category of study, occupying the entire space of the paper. In an effort to achieve the full voluminousness of the mimetic repertoire, i.e. the illusion of the third dimension, Vesna uses a layered modulating process of combining two types of graphite pencils for gentler tonal transitions, and sporadic interventions with charcoal for dramatic punctuation.”
